A message from our 2026 Season Producers
Bette & Wylie Aitken
Live theater has not only returned, it is flourishing. Thanks to your unwavering support, Chance Theater continues to grow, thrive, and inspire. Each season brings new stories, new audiences, and new reasons to celebrate what this remarkable company and community are building together.
Since reopening, Chance has dramatically orchestrated an amazing resurgence. Productions have earned acclaim, audiences have expanded, and education programs are reaching more students than ever before. We are proud to see Chance recognized not only as a cornerstone for the arts in Orange County, but also as a shining example of what passion, dedication, and community can achieve.
None of this would be possible without you. Your belief in the mission of Chance Theater, along with your generosity, presence, and voice, fuels everything that happens on stage and beyond. You are the heartbeat of this theater, and we are deeply grateful.
You are the heartbeat of this theater, and we are deeply grateful.

As this season unfolds, we hope you will continue to share the story of Chance. Invite friends, bring new faces into the audience, and let others feel the impact of live theater in their lives. Together, we can ensure that “Chance” continues to flourish for generations to come.
Looking forward to sharing the magic with you.
